Tracking Report Types: Entry Page or Tool

Entry Page or Tool Reports

Entry Page or Tool reports provide an overview of the pages and tools Students use most frequently as entry points to your course. There are four possible entry points for Students:

  • If a new assessment, assignment, calendar entry, or discussion topic is available to Students, a New Assessment Available, New Assignment Available, New Calendar Entry Available, or New Discussion Topic Available icon appears on their My page. If Students click the icon, they are taken directly to the assessment, assignment, calendar entry, or discussion topic, which is then registered as their entry point to the course.
     
  • If Students access the course via the linked course title that is always available on their My page, Course Content Home is registered as their entry point to the course.
     
  • If Students access the course via the My Grades channel or the Who's Online channel on their My page, that tool is registered as their entry point to the course.
     
  • If Students access the course via the Calendar icon on their My page, and then click a tool link from a calendar entry, the tool is registered as their entry point to the course.

Entry Page or Tool reports include the following data:

  • Page Name: the name of the page that was used as an entry point to the course.
     
  • Tool: the tool to which the page is associated.
     
  • Page Usage: the total number of times the page was used as an entry point to the course.
     
  • Percent of Total Usage: relates the total number of times the page was used as an entry point to the total usage for all entry points.

Note: Depending on administrator settings, activity statistics may not appear in reports immediately; it may take from one hour to one day before statistics are available.
